Sea Turtle Conservation Scholarship

**ftg09** · 05-05-2010, 01:20 PM

Hey everyone! I'm participating in a College Student Volunteer Sea Turtle Conservation trip to Costa Rica this summer. The organization (EcoTeach) created an essay contest and will give a $500 scholarship (towards the cost of the trip) to the person whose essay receives the most votes. Please help me out by voting for my essay! I would really appreciate it! If you could ask all your friends and family to vote too that would be absolutely fantastic!

My essay is called "The Message in Soup" (and my name is Devin Wisman). It's at the very bottom of the page.

Here's the link... http://www.ecoteachcontest.com/essays.html

Thank you so much! (voting is open until May 31, 2010)

Your story was very touching. As a sister to someone who has been on many mission trips, and on one myself, I understand how these things touch your life forever. I hope you are able to take your trip.

Ya, the trip was definitely a life-changing experience. It's something that will stay with me forever, and it's great to have those opportunities to learn about our world and the culture, hopefully making it a better place as you go. Thanks for voting! It really helps a lot! And thanks to everyone else who voted too! I really appreciate it!!!
